Joseph Mutebi, a photojournalist for the popular vernacular
state-owned daily Bukedde, spent his afternoon trying to
file a complaint with the police in the capital, Kampala. "First they told me
the officer who assaulted me was based at another station, so I went there and
now they are telling me he is based at the police station where I originally
went. So I am confused. I think they are just playing with me." Mutebi's case
is not uncommon--both in terms of the constant threat journalists face from
Uganda's police force and the challenges they encounter trying to file a
complaint.
